As about asking about fiancée, I don’t see any reason to make a big deal about it. She might be just making small talk conversations. Or she really isn’t that smart. Ton of people have below average intelligence (I try to avoid calling them dumb but I think that’s what you mean), there is nothing that you need to do about it. It’s just what it is

FYI. This is the same person whom I posted about previously, who bought my sympathy for financial help and I found out she was going on nice vacations; excessive asking of favors, etc. The issue I have with her is not actually being dumb and helpless but manipulatively playing that role. The issue I have with myself, which is a greater one, is a fear of giving in, until I complete therapy and build a stronger backbone. But when she is not around, I should not worry about her. It's not healthy to let my fear from occasional encounters at these family functions linger into my daily living...of course that's easier said than done. My mind knows it but it takes a while for feelings to catch up
